Nils Olav, a penguin at Edinburgh zoo who was already Colonel-in-Chief of the Norwegian army has just been knighted. For his "courage, loyalty, and good endowments". Pah!

There's a video of Nils Olav inspecting his soldiers... He doesn't say much, but you'll want the sound on for the presentation speech.
